Hey, everybody. This is Robbie from Guidance from Gratitude, and welcome to the latest episode of our podcast. Today, I'm very excited to speak with my friend Wendy Scaffold and Akashic Field therapist as well as medical intuitive. And this is the first episode where I'm going to talk about the path that people have taken to step into service. It's something that I find fascinating to talk about with people, especially practitioners that I've worked with, to see what was that tipping point where they just knew they had to step in and start doing this work to share those gifts with the world rather than just using these things for themselves. So I hope that you'll find this informative. There's a lot of information in this episode, not only about the work that Wendy is doing, but about Akashic Field Therapy, about what the Akashic Records are and how to work with them to change the energy of situation so you can remove that from your record and from your life. Also, we talk about the importance of a daily practice and having that in your life, a way to connect with your guides and gratitude. I hope you enjoy the next half hour or so getting know Wendy and learning more about the Akashic Records.

Hi, everybody. This is Robbie, and I'm with my friend Wendy Scaff, who I'm very, very excited about you all getting to know. Wendy has her services through her website, Healing Bodymindspirit.com. And Wendy, thank you so much for being here with me today to talk about your work and how you stepped into service. I think it's something that I find very interesting as I speak with people who are practitioners or going through their spiritual journey. How did you get started? How did you know this was your calling? And I'm really excited to talk to you about that today. Thank you for this opportunity. I appreciate it. I met you through one of my clients who mentioned the work that you do with the Kashic Field Therapy. And it's just I had a session with you, and I know many of my clients did, and all of us have been blown away by the transformations that we were able to achieve through the work that you guided us through. How did you start your spiritual journey? Where did that begin in your life? Well, I was fortunate to grow up in a faith community that allowed me, as a young child, to know that there was something greater than ourselves. And then through the years, various friends would invite me to various events, so I was invited to join them for reiki training or shaman classes or mystical conferences and the like. So it's been a long journey, but it's been a good one. Before you began your spiritual practice, what was your career or what were you doing before you stepped into, say, stepped into service? Well, I've always had a passion for kids. I have a Masters in special education. So for many years, I taught children who had severe learning disabilities, and that was a great joy. As I was raising my own family, I moved into youth ministry, so I got to do all kinds of amazing things with young people. And then from there, I stepped into my next chapter, which is this chapter, all kinds of healing modalities. Yeah, so why don't you talk about that for, like, what services are you offering and just give us an overview of what those are and how you work with people. I started out with Reiki training, and I loved doing that flowing, that beautiful love and light energy for those who are just needing to have their vibrations boosted. But it's been interesting. As I mentioned, friends have connected me to different healing modalities. And a few years ago, I had a friend invite me to an Angel Blessing meditation. And I got on an email list, and at a point, I was ready to switch from youth ministry into something else. And I just opened myself to source and said, what is the next? And in my inbox came this email inviting me to a class as a medical intuitive. I didn't even know what that was, but I felt the energy from them. Like, I don't have a clue what this is, but it just sounds fascinating. So the class started the next week, and I just signed up, and that is a great joy of mine. So medical intuitive is where a person can use a pendulum, use a medical chart, and for different areas of issues for a person's health. And then after those are identified in an energy session, do attunements, which are like Reiki, but like Reiki on steroids, where a person is flowing specific attunement to bring each organ to its most healthy, vibrant state. So every organ has its healthy vibration state. And so this attunement that happens with this kind of energy healing brings each organ to this great spot. While in that class, I'm like, well, it's great that we can bring energy to the body and bless those organs and those systems, but we know that it's what we think and feel that affects the energy of our body. So how does that get affected? Well, that gets affected through living our life and having different experiences. We might call them trauma. We might just call them a really hard event, but they leave us feeling something that's actually not true to our soul. It's just a feeling that we have in that moment. So we might feel like we're not very worthy because of the way we were treated at one point in our life. And then that energy gets depleted and it affects the system of the body that needs to know, hey, solar plexus, we are worthy, right? So I asked, how do we help people to go back and just clean up the closet of those pieces of this information. I got stuck in there during those tests. And that's called a castle field therapy. Casual field therapy is again scanning again with a pendulum, with charts of all the possible events that could happen to a person, identifying the belief system that can evolve from that, the fears that evolve, the emotional blocks, all of that. And by identifying them and then recognizing, oh, that's just something that happened at that time. And my protectors have me now protected and not wanting that to ever happen again. So we figure out, okay, well, that's not our truth. What is our souls truth? And then a person actually rewires the neurons because whatever fires together wires together. So we just rewire the neurons by reading for 21 days the soul's actual truth. So that's awesome. Medical intuitive caution field therapy. I love other things, like past life recall, spirit release. I have a big heart for those Earthbound souls that don't understand the light. So I love to work with that. And my next endeavor is animal communication. Yeah, you mentioned the transition from wanting to move out of the role of youth pastor into something else. What was that tipping point for you to step into this different type of service? You were already in service. You are already working with people and helping them on their spiritual journey, but in a different way. So what really was the tipping point to make you go into more of the metaphysical practices that's not traditional church or organized religion? Honestly, burnout. Don't we all experience that at some point where we've been doing something for so long and our soul knows, hey, there's more to experience in life than this one thing? And the body just feels the fatigue, which is really our soul saying, we aren't meeting up with our expectations for our lifetime here. And so the energy gets depleted, and we feel out of sorts, and we feel the burnout. And so, honestly, I went through that, which we say, oh, dark night of the soul, right? And that's where we can start climbing up the hill, going to the next adventure. And so I'm grateful for that, actually. I'm grateful. I finally felt weary and tired and could surrender. And that's awesome. I just said, I know what's next. I know I'm too tired from what I've been doing, so I'll just be open. And that's when that email came in. And people all the time and so many people have similar stories. Like, it's when we finally experience that crushing feeling, I got to do something different. And then if we just surrender, that's the word surrender. I know. When I decided to step into service, I was in a weekend workshop, and I went in going, why is it what I want to do working? This is how I'm supposed to do. I know it. And the teacher just kind of laughed. I was like, yeah, okay. You'll see, by the end of the weekend, I was like, I have to do this. I don't want to, but I have to. And I just surrendered and stepped into doing readings, which I never wanted to do, and leading workshops, which I never wanted to do, but I was able to do it in a way that I felt comfortable. I found my tribe that supported me through that. And like you said, those things came right when you needed it. That email came in. That's the same way I feel about the mastermind that set me on this whole journey and a message I just keep getting and getting in the cards. And my message of the day that I share is like, just tap into that magic, see that magic, embrace it. Let it guide you to where you're supposed to be and stop resisting. I'm glad. I'm so glad that you embraced the magic of that email and stepped into service because you're doing such wonderful things to help people. I know that I've never done an Akashic field therapy session before. I heard about the Akashic records and talked with people about it. But the way that you were able to break down the process through the sheets that you gave us and the exercises you gave us to do, every day really worked. And every day it was a different experience. Different things would come up. Sometimes they'd be really great feelings, and sometimes they'd be really tough. And then when it was that tough day, here's Wendy checking in, miraculously knowing, okay, I'm going to check. How are you doing? So that's another thing I just love about the work I did with you, is you weren't alone as you went through it. You were checking in. You knew when somebody would need that support or just that little high. Sending us some love today. And that was just really lovely. So sorry, back to my questions here. Could I interject to something here? I feel that I didn't really share what a cautious field is. Very clearly when I spoke earlier, and just for your list and maybe have a, like, well, what is this Akashic field stuff? They're talking about? The word Akasha is an old Sanskrit word that means sky or ether. Basically, everything is energy. All aspects of our own body are energy. Our thoughts are energy. Our words are energy, and our story is energy. So when we refer to the Akashic field, we're talking about this energy field that holds our story. And we all have the story, and it's the universal story, but we're all contributing to that. So when a person does therapy, that just means they're giving permission for a practitioner to access out of that storyline those events that affected the soul in a way that got some wire, where their protectors and defenders are like, oh, we don't want to feel that anymore. And so they're living not their own soul life. They're actually living a very guarded block protected life. Because that system, that autonomic system of fight or flight, which we need, doesn't ever want us to feel that pain again. So it says, oh, well, I won't take that risk, or people aren't to be trusted just because we don't want to experience that pain again. But that's not the soul's truth, right? So we find those things in that storyline, they're like, okay, this is where that old thought got tucked in there that doesn't belong, and let's clear it out because all souls are equal to all other souls. All souls are 100% worthy. And I don't know that. We all know that our memories are blocked when we come to planet Earth, right? So we need to forgotten that we're 100% worthy. So I love that this therapy like cleans out all of that old misinformation and reminds us who we are. Absolutely. One thing I love when I talk to my clients about this work, I wasn't doing the Akashic Field therapy specifically, but just going back and looking at where this belief or thought came in that we're not worthy or deserving or the struggle came in around something. Because there's usually when we're triggered it's for a reason and it goes back to something we've either experienced in this life or a past life. If you believe in reincarnation and past life, if you can go back and look at that trigger, then you can move past it because you're taking the energy. Like you said, everything is energy. It's an energetic record of everything that's happened to everyone in the universe. So you're able to remove that energy from your storyline so you can be free of it. And it's just really cool practice. And that's something that I've worked with my clients on doing. It's like, where did this come from? Where does the thought that you're not worthy come from? And I know in the work that we did, I've thought about these things. But by doing it in a specific way that you introduced to me in the 21 day process, new insights would come up about things that I never would have well, maybe I would have gotten there at some point. But having that focused period of 21 days and really truly working through the process, things came up for me that I never would have put together. Limiting beliefs that I had around abundance. That people, I'd have different people in reading say, oh, you have a limiting belief around abundance. I was like, no I don't. I want money, I want joy, I want happiness. But then during this process, I was like, oh my gosh. It's something I said way, way back in the day that has been way back in my thought. I don't want to be like those people. And those people were the ones that had money and wealth in my mind, even though I hadn't consciously thought of that. I had that connection to abundance. And so I was able to work through that and process. So it's really powerful work, and I love that it can bless so many areas of our life. For example, I started gaining weight a few years ago, just slowly but gradually gaining these extra pounds. I was like, what is it? I haven't changed what I eat. I haven't changed how I exercise. So I did Akashi field therapy for myself. Specific to that question, I found out that this memory emerged when I was a little girl, about seven. I was sitting on the edge of my mom's bed, and she had had her thyroid removed, and so she didn't have metabolism, and so she had gained a little weight. And I just remember sitting there saying, I love my mom so much, I want to be like her in every way when I grow up. Oh, my goodness. That got stuck in my Akashic field, in my subconscious. So I now have to fulfill that, right? I now have to live that out. So I was gaining the weight. I could be like my mother in every way when I grew up, but that's not my soul's truth. I don't have a thyroid situation going on. And so it's the moment, the first day of the 21 day, the weight just fell off. It just begins. So within three months, £25 was gone. But that was my subconscious. Yeah, but I remember you telling that story, and that actually popped up for me during my 21 days, thinking, what was that limiting belief that I threw into my past? And that's when that came up. I don't want to be like those people. It was the exact opposite of what you had said, I want to be just like her. And so it brought in something, and for me, I don't want to be like them. And it kept me at a distance from abundance in some way. So it's really interesting how that works. The relationships is another area just to bring awareness for people. Like, what can you use it for? So, relationships, because we've grown up with tough experiences, we might have that wired in that we don't trust others. And this clears all that out. So we can have those relationships with people who are trustworthy. Right. We have healthy relationships with those who are trustworthy. And success is another one, as you were mentioning, like, abundance. Like, we are meant all souls are meant to be fully, abundant. Absolutely. We're supposed to have all that our heart desires for our highest good. I'm going to put that little caveat on there. Yes. Everything that we want to do, everything that we want to have, if it's an alignment with our highest good, oh, my goodness, we're meant to have it. No one's meant to be struggling and stuck. I know we talk about full contracts sometimes, but for me, those are generalities that's like, I want to learn patience, forgiveness, unconditional love. If not, oh, I want to suffer in poverty. I just want to make clear that that's not a thing. Don't feel like, oh, well, I must be living out my fall contract. Highly likely it's your protectors and defenders that have just kept you from being successful, because maybe there's a time when being successful didn't feel good, didn't play out well. Like, you maybe had the best grades in the class and the teacher was praising on you, and then all the other students just give you a really hard time at recess. Right. They don't want to be successful after that. So this just calls all that out of there. You're meant to be successful. You're meant to have great relationships and be healthy in every way. Absolutely. So my next question was, what was the challenge that you faced as you moved into your spiritual practice? Oh, yeah, I had a great big encounter with my feeling of lack of worst. It's really hard to get out there and do anything if you don't feel worthy to do anything. And I realized, like, 30 years of volunteer youth ministry where it became a 40 hours a week job. I'm like, oh, I need to take care of those preschoolers, and, oh, what about our high school students? We should do mission trips abroad more and more and more hoping. I now realize I did not know this at the time, but I now realized that was my cry to be recognized in some way. Oh, look at Wendy. Look, she took those kids on that mission trip. Somebody said, Good job, good job, because I wasn't saying good job to myself because I didn't realize I am 100% worthy and equal to all. So I have to do some work on myself and come to my truth. And then I was free to just roll with it. But yeah, tried to overcome even to decide, do I charge people for this or do I just
Participant #1:
yes. But I also with my past life recall work. I have realized I've lived multiple lives as a slave. So coming in with slave energy that had not been resolved, kind of wired me, set up for, oh, you just do and don't receive. And so I've overcome that. And I love that. Anything that we heal in a caution feel therapy, you have healed it in this lifetime, and it won't go with you to other lifetimes. There won't be any karma that says, well, you're still trying to learn that piece of patience. And so you keep having that opportunity again because you will be walking strong in your soul's truth. And so there's no need to keep learning about worth in the next one because you mastered it already. Yes, I love that. I mean, we've talked about this, and I had very similar experiences. I think a lot of people who are resistant to step into the spotlight or service it's because in the past they might have been persecuted for it. And I know those thoughts had come into my mind. That's why it was easier and safer for me to produce other people, because then I wasn't having to put my voice out there and to share my thoughts and feelings and emotions around all of these subjects. So it's much easier for me to let other people do that. Oh, I'm just pretty sure of that. So when I went into that mastermind saying, that's what I'm going to do, and they were like, yeah, no, you're not. Like, why? That's where I feel comfortable. I'm grateful, Robbie, though, for all the work that you do and the services. Oh, thank you. I'm grateful that you've done your healing work so that you can offer that to others. That's amazing. Well, work in progress, as we all are. But it's an interesting journey and one that I'm really trying to my message lately has just been, just open your heart to love and move forward through that. And as you do that, you will know exactly where you're supposed to be in that present moment, not worrying about the future or the past and really trying to see people through that lens of love and light. That's what my challenge is right now, is working through that focus. Yeah, it's an interesting journey for sure, and one that we have to work out every day. But as you do, it becomes easier and easier because you learn the lesson. You're able just to integrate that into your daily life and something else will come up that you want to work on. And so as long as you're open and willing to do that work, it's just a really cool thing. So we talked about the challenge of, like, you stepping in what are some of the most rewarding or satisfying things about the work that you do? I love to witness the healing that comes when a soul remembers who they are. And then I love all the follow up story saying, oh, my gosh, I got the job that I wanted, or, oh my gosh, my health is now restored or I'm getting married next month. I just want to let you know I love that. That's a soul that's free. So that's my joy. Yes, I love that. That's beautiful. It is satisfying when you see and also just having people realize they can bring in that change in transformation they want before they just felt stuck and hopeless and seeing that joy and the little stuff I tell people celebrate every step, every success. And the success is not the end process. I received a message from one of my guides named Emmanuel, who, when he first came to me, I asked, what are you here to help me with? And it was very clear, just a booming word, success. And I was like, that's weird, because success is the end of the process. And then as I sat and thought about it over the next week or two, I was like, no, find the success in every moment so it can propel you forward, so it can bring you that energy and joy. So you can just keep moving through and accomplishing your dreams. It's just such an important theme because when you can connect to those successes, it brings you closer to gratitude. And gratitude opens your heart and then it connects you with the energy and your spirit guides. It's just all like this big, beautiful, unfolding. Absolutely.
Participant #1:
Yeah. So speaking kind of of that, what insights do you have that you could share with others that are either looking to step into their own spiritual service or practice or even just beginning their spiritual journey? Because not everybody's going to be a practitioner. I like thinking like people stepping out on that journey or if they are becoming practitioners, what advice would you have for those people? The first step is surrender. Just take away any expectation as to how it's all supposed to play out. Those of us who like to control things, no limit. That's a protector in action, right? Just let the protectors stand out. Just let me go work here. And I find so important our daily meditation. And I know for some that's like a negative word. I say it's a four letter word. People think of it as a four letter word. Right. However, because we are all energy, it is vitally important that we feed that energy body with all that it needs to know. And if we think about the chakra system, for those who are aware of that or the energy centers of the body, like the root shopper needs to know every day I am safe and secure, my soul is in control here. I can bring in source energy, I can bring in my community, I can manifest, I am safe and secure. And the sacral it needs to know, oh, I can enjoy healthy connections and I need some time to be creative and joyful in my day. And every chakra has its need of nutrients, I would say. And so it doesn't take long to just everyday validate affirm what your body energetically needs and then to wrap it with white light protection so that nobody else's protectors can interfere. And then source before to like bless the date. We're not alone in this. We have this magnificent powerhouse of energy all around us that desires to bless us. Now it's up to us to open our own conduit, to allow that energy to flow, right? It's never going to impose itself upon us, but to open ourselves, to allow that energy of safety, security, love, healing power to just flow through. What a great way to start the day. And it's better than breakfast. It's better than anything else we can do for ourselves. I say coffee because I don't know, I do make my coffee before I come up and do, actually. I lay in bed and do it and then get my coffee and then come back and continue. No, I agree. I'm glad to just email a couple of the free meditations, but I'm glad to send this out to folks and walk you through it so that you have a quick way to just really bless your body, bless your energy field, bless your mind and heart to wrap in protection, to send Source forward. Just bless your whole day. I'm glad to just help anybody with that. So you can just let me know. Absolutely. You mentioned that we have to ask for that, and that's something that's very important for people to know and we talk about a lot, is that we have free will as humans. And so our guides and angels and God, they don't just swoop in and control our lives. We do that ourselves so we can put up those blocks and resist and deter and look the other way from things we don't want to deal with and they can't make us look at it. So we have to stop, invite them in to share the guidance and wisdom and that light I would invite people to consider, too, is to surrender daily meditation and then invite the team, your team, to journey with you. So we all have those angels that picked us out of all the other souls that picked us. We have spirit guides and all kinds of loving energies and entities that desire to bless through love and light. So call your team so you're not alone. And the last thing I would say is read all the books and take all the classes that sound interesting to you. Something really sparks that interest and you're like, wow, I'm curious about that. Then pick it up or sign up for the course and just allow Source to navigate with you. That's where you want to be because it's all meant to be for your highest good, right? Absolutely. And that's one thing I love about my spiritual study group, is that people are coming from all different paths and sharing information about all these different things that they're encountering through their journey. But going back to the point you were making about read everything, see everything, explore, that's the thing. This journey is supposed to be fun. Embrace it from that point of joy. So you can just like, I just find books and just get them and read them. You can check them out from the library if you don't have the money to buy them all. But take the free workshops. People are offering free workshops all the time on Heyhouse has a lot of them. Like Wendy says, there's some area or subject that just perk up a little bit and get a little jolt of energy, take it. But that's a wonderful, wonderful point, wendy, thank you so much for this conversation. I just love when I get to spend time with. You and I'm so grateful that our paths have crossed and I'm excited for people to experience your Akashic field therapy sessions. You can find Wendy At on their website site healingbodymindspirit.com. Again, that's healingbodymindspirit.com and I cannot encourage you enough to do it. It's a wonderful process. I'm going to reach out to her about another one right now because while we were talking about things, all this stuff started coming up and I was like, I can't talk about that right now, but I need to. So I'm excited to start my next 21 day session with her very soon. Thank you so much for sharing your light with the world. I wish people could see you because you just shine, you're just beaming constantly. And I asked how you stepped into this and why, and it's just that light. You keep mentioning light and you are the epitome of light, and I just thank you for sharing that with me in our interactions and with the world as you go through your day. Thank you so much. Thank you for the property. I just appreciate you so much. Well, I do you too. And everybody, her website, Wendy's website is Healingbodymindspirit.com. Thank you again, Wendy, for being here today. I'm very excited for people to be able to work with you.
